Biden’s climate change reparations will
bankrupt America
Posted By: FormerDem, 2/15/2024 10:06:09 AM
Perhaps nothing better illustrates the backwards nature of our time than the drive for reparations. This includes not only payment for race discrimination, but also for the impacts of climate change. In both cases, it’s the West’s middle and working classes who will foot the bill.

Subterranean facility for terror group’s intelligence needs, beneath UN complex in upscale Rimal neighborhood, discovered after interrogations of Palestinian prisoners
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip — Beneath the Gaza Strip headquarters of the controversial United Nations agency for Palestinian refugees, known commonly as UNRWA, the Hamas terror group hid one of its most significant assets, the Israeli military has revealed.
The subterranean data center — complete with an electrical room, industrial battery power banks and living quarters for Hamas terrorists operating the computer servers — was built precisely under the location where Israel would not consider looking initially, let alone target in an airstrike.
Tucker Carlson and Vladimir Putin were in the spotlight on Thursday night, as the divisive, Trump-supporting rightwing commentator interviewed the reclusive Russian autocrat.
The interview, filmed in Moscow, was Putin’s first with a western media outlet since Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022. [snip] Carlson’s trip to Moscow had been widely criticised ahead of the interview. But the opening of the two-hour conversation between the former Fox News host and Putin was a let down.
In a surprising turn of events, Ecuador has experienced a significant decrease in violent deaths, with a notable 41% drop following the declaration of an internal armed conflict. Between January 10 and 24, 2024, official figures reveal an average of 9.2 murders daily, down from 15.6 in the same period the previous year.
Biologist Bret Weinstein detailed his recent trip to the Darien Pass on Thursday with Daily Caller co-founder Tucker Carlson, warning that he had allegedly witnessed a mass Chinese camp.
Weinstein appeared on “The Tucker Carlson Encounter” to discuss his recent visit to the Darien Pass, known as one of the most treacherous ways migrants from South America travel to get to the United States. Weinstein stated that he had gone down to the location after writer Michael Yon invited him to witness the sites migrants had to go through to survive the journey.
Venezuela’s Supreme Justice Tribunal has upheld a ban which prevents presidential candidate Maria Corina Machado from holding office, upending the opposition’s plans for elections planned for later this year.
Machado, a former lawmaker, won the opposition’s independently run presidential primary last October with more than 90 percent of the votes, potentially putting her in a prime position to challenge longtime socialist leader Nicolas Maduro at the elections.
Six Jewish students filed a federal lawsuit against Harvard on Wednesday, alleging that the University has failed to address “severe and pervasive” antisemitism on campus.
The nearly 80-page suit — filed on behalf of the students by Donnelly, Conroy & Gelhaar and Kasowitz Benson Torres in U.S. District Court in Boston — alleges that Harvard’s “deliberate indifference” and “enabling” of antisemitism violates Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, or national origin by institutions that receive federal funding.
“Harvard, America’s leading university, has become a bastion of rampant anti-Jewish hatred and harassment,” the complaint states.

affliction and is faced with intractable problems 2 replies
The government has developed a dangerous affliction. Faced with intractable - maybe insoluble - problems, it has started to make policies on the basis of wishing them away, as if stating a much-desired outcome while ignoring serious obstacles could somehow bring it about. This is a species of what psychologists call “magical thinking”. [snip] The second example was less widely reported. Defence Secretary Grant Shapps’s assertions that the best vehicle for governing Gaza when the war ends is the Palestinian Authority, and that the British Support Team, a military unit that has been training the PA’s security forces for many years, should play a vital role, with its “capacity” enhanced.
The Shin Bet security agency publishes footage showing the interrogation of former Hamas communications minister, Yousef al-Mansi, who appears to heavily criticize the terror group. “This is a group of crazy people that [Yahya] Sinwar leads. They destroyed the Gaza Strip. Set it back 200 years,” al-Mansi says in translated excerpts provided by the Shin Bet. “I have not seen anyone in the Gaza Strip who supports Sinwar, nobody likes Sinwar. There are people who, day and night, pray that God will free us from him,” he says.The former Hamas minister says the October 7 attacks are “the opposite of Islams heresy, madness.
Guyana has appealed for help from the United Nations and the United States as the Venezuelan president, Nicolás Maduro, announced a series of measures intended to advance its annexation of two-thirds of the tiny South American nation’s territory. “I have spoken to the secretary general of the United Nations and several leaders, alerting them of these dangerous developments and the desperate actions of President Maduro,” Irfaan Ali, president of Guyana, said in a television broadcast late on Tuesday, as he informed the nation of 800,000 of Maduro’s latest steps intended to create a new Venezuelan state in Guyana.
According to report, evacuees to Rafah in the south of the Strip have been greeting each other with ‘May God take revenge upon Hamas’
Israel’s Channel 12 news reports that Gaza residents are increasingly expressing anger at Hamas as the war between the terrorist organization and Israel continues.
The Tuesday report showed footage of clashes between Hamas operatives and civilians over supplies, with the civilians yelling expletives at the gunmen. Arab affairs reporter Ehud Yaari noted that such scenes have become increasingly common. The network also cited conversations with Gazans inside the Strip who said residents “are praying that Israel will destroy Hamas and are saying it out loud.”
Israeli troops have been pictured setting up pumps to flood Hamas tunnels with water.
Long pipes can be seen running from the sea up the beach and into Gaza in images released by the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF).
It follows reports that the IDF was moving to ruin the terror group’s vast subterranean network by setting up five pumps capable of sending hundreds of thousands of litres of water cascading underground every hour.
[snip] The terror group is believed to be hiding its leadership, the 137 remaining hostages and the vast bulk of its arsenal in the network.

Donald Trump’s days as a Big Apple real estate tycoon may be numbered.
A New York judge ordered that the former president pay more than $350 million — and limit his doing business in the state where he made his name — after finding Friday that he inflated his net worth by billions to dupe banks and insurers over the course of a decade. The ruling from Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron, if it withstands an inevitable appeal, could cause Trump, 77, to be stripped of control over Midtown’s Trump Tower and his other iconic New York properties.
Engoron’s decision capped a three-month civil trial that put a dent
Willis defended paying Wade in cash for her their vacations together, and said she had piles of money in her house because her father told her to keep six months of savings available at all times.
In another extraordinary moment she told lawyer Ashleigh Merchant, who is representing Trump co-defendant Michael Roman, that she was 'not a hostile witness' and she 'wanted' to testify.
She accused Merchant of 'trying to implicate that you slept with somebody the first day you met them.'
'Ms Merchant's interests are contrary to democracy,' she fumed, accusing her of 'lies' about when she and Wade dated.
Robin DiAngelo, the woke white author of White Fragility, has called Michelangelo’s painting of the creation of man in the Sistine Chapel an icon of “white supremacy.” (snip) “The single image I use to capture the concept of white supremacy is Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel God creating man,” she said, “you know, where God is in a cloud and there’s all these angels and he’s reaching out and he’s touching — I don’t know who that is, David or something — and God is white and David’s white and the angels are white.”
“That is the perfect convergence of white supremacy, patriarchy, right?” she added.
Special Counsel David Weiss has charged a former FBI informant with lying about President Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden taking $5million bribes from the Ukrainian energy company Burisma.
Alexander Smirnov, 43, is accused of making a false statement and creating a false record for statements he made to the FBI in 2020 and, if convicted, faces a maximum of 25 years in prison.
Smirnov was arrested on Thursday afternoon at Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas after arriving the United States from overseas and appeared in federal court in Nevada on Thursday afternoon.
Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., said he'd pick Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, or former Ohio Republican Sen. Rob Portman as potential running mates in a hypothetical third-party presidential run. "Hypothetically, if I was picking my running mate… really, who I would ask right now is Mitt Romney," Manchin said Thursday at the City Club of Cleveland breakfast forum.
"Maybe Rob Portman would be right there, too," Manchin added. "Rob is a dear friend of mine. What a good man, what a good man."
An evidentiary hearing about alleged misconduct by Soros-backed Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis was underway on Thursday as the judge weighs whether Willis should be disqualified from the Trump RICO case.
According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Fani Willis “financially benefited” from a romantic relationship with top Trump prosecutor Nathan Wade.
Trump’s RICO co-defendant, Michael Roman, filed an explosive supplemental reply to Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and accused her of lying to the court about her affair with the top Trump prosecutor she appointed.
Even more Americans could see their student loans forgiven after the Biden administration announced how those struggling with their payments could have their debts wiped.
The proposal unveiled on Thursday outlines multiple factors the Education Secretary may consider to determine whether borrowers are facing the type of hardship that would get them relief.
The Biden administration has already cancelled $136.6 billion in student loan debt for 3.7 million borrowers, but the Supreme Court struck down President Biden's original $400 billion plan to cancel it last June.
From the moment that Democrat Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis abruptly hurled herself into the court hearing on Thursday, it was obvious what she was there to do. And it’s hard to even blame her because it’s the only option she has left.
Before she was even asked to appear — before it was even clear she would be required to testify in the hearing about her relationship with Nathan Wade that could zero out her criminal case against Donald Trump — Willis entered the scene in a painfully bright pink dress and told the court she was ready for her close up. Her eyebrows frozen in a defiant arch,
Given the wholesale disaster that has been the Biden presidency, one has to wonder how it all happened. We have all seen the Democrat party become radicalized, almost purely Marxist, since the Obama administration. Obama promised to transform the country and he surely did. He effectively drove race relations backward by seventy years.
It is common knowledge that Obama despised his VP Biden. Why he was chosen to be his VP in the first place is anybody’s guess. Biden was a known jerk, a racist (his mentor was KKK member/aficionado Robert Byrd), rather dumb, a plagiarist, and a pathological liar.

Hundreds of American Radio Stations Ahead
of 2024 Election 24 replies
George Soros, the left’s favorite billionaire, is buying up American radio stations by the hundreds, ahead of the 2024 election.
This is obviously part of a strategy, because that’s what Soros does. He hatches backdoor plans to exert influence over American politics. A few years back, he pumped a ton of cash into district attorney races across the country and we all know how that worked out.
This is his new plan. Could there be more to this than gaining media influence?
The Washington Times reports:
The results are in - the psychotic 'sanctuary cities' experiment has utterly failed.
And there's no clearer proof than the Rotten Apple – where a once proud, party-boy mayor has been reduced to a sniveling spectator to his own city's decline.
'I can't deport. I can't stop people from coming in,' Eric Adams told Fox Nation on Wednesday, referring to suicidal sanctuary city laws that prevent New York State authorities from cooperating with federal law enforcement.Faced with the prospect of an open southern border flooding NYC with roving gangs of migrant repeat-offenders, who have shot tourists, beaten police officers and terrorized neighborhoods from Brooklyn to the Bronx, Hizzoner has thrown up
ROME — Robin DiAngelo, the woke white author of White Fragility, has called Michelangelo’s painting of the creation of man in the Sistine Chapel an icon of “white supremacy.”
DiAngelo recently spoke with Jalon Johnson on his “Not Your Ordinary Parts” podcast, in which she slammed Michelangelo’s portayal of God creating Adam as “white supremacist.”
“The single image I use to capture the concept of white supremacy is Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel God creating man,” she said, “you know, where God is in a cloud and there’s all these angels and he’s reaching out and he’s touching — I don’t know who that is, David or something —

Fancy words for the dolts, while the fascists simply pick up and carry away the wealth of the US middle class and hand it out to the already-rich here and there. Transferring wealth from the poor to the rich is the hallmark of the Democratic party today.
